Sanskrit Text

तमाश्रमपदं प्राप्तमृषेर्भार्या समर्चयत् युद्धमदसंमत्तो नाभ्यनन्दत्तथार्चनम्

English Translation

When he came to the hermitage, he was hospitably received by the Rishi's wife. But proud of prowess, he was not pleased with the reception. By force and in defiance of all resistance, he seized and carried off from the hermitage the chief cow whose milk supplied the sacred Ghee, not at all heeding the loud lowing of her calf. And he wantongly pulled down the trees of the forest.
